This is not a substitute for reading the entire SkyView System Installation Guide,which provides instructions for wiring and configuring SkyView to the unique requirements ofyour particular airplane.1. A SkyView display requires 10-30 VDC. You must connect BOTH of the (long) Red wiresto POWER and BOTH of the (long) black wires to Ground. Current for each display can beup to 3.5A @ 12V (add 1.5A if the SV-BAT-320 battery is connected and being charged),so use a big battery or power supply.2. Any devices connected to SkyView that do not receive their power from the SkyViewNetwork (such as SV-XPNDR-261/262 and Dynon Autopilot servos) must also bepowered ON to communicate with SkyView.3. SkyView SETUP MENU is accessed by pushing and holding Buttons 7+8 together for 2-3seconds.4. Setting the Tail Number is required for before you can configure your SkyView Network(described below): SETUP > AIRCRAFT INFORMATION > TAIL NUMBER. If Tail Numberhas not yet been issued for your plane, set TAIL NUMBER to something other thanDYNON.5. Many SkyView displays and modules communicate over a common set of wires – theSkyView Network that terminates at the D9 connectors on the back of your SkyViewdisplay(s). Getting all modules and displays “talking” on SkyView Network is done bygoing to SETUP MENU > SYSTEM SETUP > NETWORK SETUP > CONFIGURE > (click rightone more time). If a module is noted as “requires update”, press the UPDATE button.Otherwise, press the FINISH button. Note that you will not see any flight instruments orengine instruments before a network configuration is performed, even if the SV-ADAHRS-200/201 and SV-EMS-220/221 have been wired properly and are connected.1-2 SkyView System Installation Guide - Revision O
